Hard cover book. Ginger Murdoch Author: William Hatfield Publisher: Angus & Robertson Date: 1932 Further Information: Dark Blue plain cloth hardcover with lettering and patterning to spine in white. The spine has a Library label with an inscription.fictionGinger Murdoch is a novel built around a recurring bush character of Hatfield's, which had already been running as a series of short stories in The Sydney Mail from 1931 onward. It's about a hard-drinking bushman named Ginger Murdoch. The stories (titles like 'Ginger Murdoch: Horse Dealer', 'Ginger Murdoch, Publican', 'Ginger Murdoch–Outlaw', 'Ginger Murdoch: Squatter') cast him as a knockabout outback figure a horse-dealer, publican, 'knight errant', squatter moving through the kind of droving, station and bush-town life Hatfield knew first-hand. The 1932 Angus & Robertson first edition ran to 268 pages, and the dust-jacket art shows Ginger Murdoch on horseback, exploring the countryside consistent with a picaresque, episodic outback adventure rather than a tightly plotted single narrative.warrnambool, shipwrecked-coast, flagstaff-hill, flagstaff-hill-maritime-museum, maritime-museum, shipwreck-coast, flagstaff-hill-maritime-village, shipwrecked-artefact, book, ginger murdoch, william hatfield

Hard cover book. Black Waterlily Author: William Hatfield Publisher: Angus & Robertson Date: 1935 Further Information: Dark green plain cloth hardcover with lettering to front cover spine has red cloth repair to spine lettering in black pen. The spine has a Library label with an inscription.fictionBlack Waterlily is an outback novel set in the Northern Territory. It is dedicated to ‘Dinkum’, a blue cattle-dog and the author’s sole companion on many tough outback tracks. Contemporary reviewers grouped it with other 1935 books on northern Australia. Its central character is a woman, which scholars have contrasted with the male-centred Territory of Xavier Herbert’s Capricornia. An Australian National University (ANU) Press study notes that the continuing popularity of Capricornia has overshadowed Hatfield’s female character, who explores the same theme in Black Waterlily. The story includes a mission-station doctor who is noted for his sincerity and rapport with Aboriginal people, and the station is recognisable as Oenpelli, in the Northern Territory.shipwrecked-coast, flagstaff-hill, flagstaff-hill-maritime-museum, warrnambool, maritime-museum, shipwreck-coast, flagstaff-hill-maritime-village, shipwrecked-artefact, book, pattison collection, warrnambool library, warrnambool mechanics’ institute, ralph eric pattison, corangamite regional library service, warrnambool city librarian, mechanics’ institute library, victorian library board, warrnambool books and records, warrnambool children’s library, black waterlily, william hatfield

The spine has a Library label with an inscription.fictionBig Timber was first published as a serial in the Sydney Morning Herald in 40 daily instalments between 25 February and 10 April 1936. Angus & Robertson issued the first print edition later that year, with new editions in 1937 and 1938. It is set mainly in the timber-milling districts of eastern Australia, with a chapter or two overseas. The story is described as a conventional poor-boy-rich-girl romance that carries a lot of knowledge of the timber industry and of trees. The book includes a wood chopping contest between a Canadian and an Australian. A bookseller’s description says it opens in the Burragorang Valley and moves to the Walda Valley, where a settler clears a grazing farm from forest wilderness. shipwrecked-coast, flagstaff-hill, flagstaff-hill-maritime-museum, warrnambool, maritime-museum, shipwreck-coast, flagstaff-hill-maritime-village, shipwrecked-artefact, book, pattison collection, warrnambool library, warrnambool mechanics’ institute, ralph eric pattison, corangamite regional library service, warrnambool city librarian, mechanics’ institute library, victorian library board, warrnambool books and records, warrnambool children’s library, book, big timber, william hatfield
